// The boundary check, checked.
//
// `scripts/checkImports.js` is the acceptance test for the whole module contract
// (MODULE_API.md §5.1), and a check that has never been shown to fail is a check
// nobody knows the state of. These point it at fixtures that break each rule and
// assert it says so — and at prose that merely *describes* breaking them, which
// is what it got wrong the first time it was run.
//
// **Every fixture is a template literal, and that is load-bearing.** The scanner
// reads the files in this directory too, so an ordinary quoted string holding
// `require('../../x')` would make this file fail the very check it is testing.
// Templates are blanked by the stripper for exactly this class of text: source
// being composed as data is not source being imported.
